I travel often, and never thought i could find such a peacefull&welcoming retreat in central Berlin
Pros:

It looked like an amazing idea to stay on a boat in such a central and cultural area. Arriving and being welcomed and hosted with an amazing simpathy and kindness by the owner was already above needs. The lounge on top is such a precious secret spot to keep, by the river, on a boat, quiet and peacefull.
Have in mind the room size are operational, to sleepp and have your privacy needs. Else, the always available coffee in the lounge area, amazing kindness staff, facilities available, and the peacefull retreat it can become in central Berlin, is amazing.
Also for whoever that never been on a boat and question about the wobbling: you don’t feel it.
Definitly the place i’ll book for any upcoming stay in Berlin.
